Brother of the Tsar | Michael Romanov

This is the story of Grand Duke Michael Romanov, brother of Tsar Nicholas II, and the first Romanov to be killed by the Bolsheviks. The life and death of this third son of Alexander III served to punctuate the trials of the last Tsar's reign, as well as the horror and brutality of the regimes that followed. His ancestor, Peter the Great, made history. Misha, as he was known to his family, was swept into a political tidal wave, over which he had little control.
